It appears to me that 30 day karma has switched back to votes received in the past 30 days from votes on material posted in the past 30 days. Why? The original switch was very soon after the introduction of the feature.

I noticed this because people who haven't posted in months have 30 day karma. I then tested it by voting on an old comment.

You're correct, John deliberately changed this as he thought it was a bug. I'll chat to some people to work out what the desired behaviour is.

Previous behavior was chosen intentionally, see this thread for the discussion. I think the change should be reverted.

Ok, it has been reverted.
